stay away from fastgsm.com

I paid my $20 via paypal. Their automated system happily accepted my payment then promply complained that my (paypal verified) email had not been verified and that I should follow instructions in the email they had sent.
I never received any such email. Not in regular, junk, spamassassin folders. This is my 100% reliable email address that never loses an email. I promply filed a complaint with paypal. Next day their response was that I did not respond to the email (that I never got) so they activated it manually but I have already lost confidence and want my money back. So far they have refused to offer me a refund so I am continuing to fight it on paypal.
My advice is to stay away!

Hi,
1. we do use Google Premium (Paid) services to send out the emails. It is most reliable service in the market.
2. You can any time ask for verification via separate email.
3. We never refuse to make refund if credit not used
Your situation mostly happens when you use stolen PayPal and can not control PayPal primary email. Or maybe you are competitor who try to damage reputation - you have 2 posts only so you do not have any reputation.

when I tried to connect my phone and unlock it, I get the error
that my account does not have enough credit even though I have paid for it
already . Please help.

thats just harsh thanks for the tip ill b sure to stay away

i'll also wait for a day, if they don't reply, I'll raise a PayPal claim too.

I like the competitor trying to damage reputation assumption. Real professional.

Awesome English dude, you Chinese?

Hello, FastGSM crew is 100% trustable. They make unique solutions on the market (many many world firsts) and for many models only they can unlock them (specially usa/canada and latin/central america models). They helped to a lot of users there to unlock their phones including me - Me personally did unlocked around 25 phones with them.

guess so.. Wah Wai Electronics or something similar is their paypal name.

To unlock your phone, call your provider customer service and say politely "I would like to have my phone unlocked. Can you please provide me the code?" and viola - you have your code in the mail in about 3-7 days. Even if you are on the contract, they will get it to you in anyway. Use google people.
PS: I unlocked my Nokia while being on the contract, on the 5th month

Beware! fastgsm scam!
They suspended my account immediately after I purchase $20 credit. It’s been almost a week and multiple attempt to contact them and all I got is automated reply.

[APP] Spotify USA NEED INVITE or UK Member to sign me up!

Hi I currently reside in the USA and spotify (because of the darned record companies) has not made its way over here yet. I heard that if someone invites your or someone based in the UK or other countries where its supported signs you up you can use the service. So being that the community here on XDA is full of surprisingly generous people I thought I would give it a whack and ask to see if anyone could help me I am willing to donate via paypal if someone truly can help! THANK YOU FOR ALL REPLIES
I tried all sorts of proxy methods already and it seems as though they blocked this method....

You need to have a Premium account to be able to stream to your phone, that costs £10 a month.

well thats fine I would like to get a free trial though to start then go from there

I'm on it I'll just fill out some random name and stuff. You can change it yourself later.

Btw, i need your email. PM it to me

I am sorry, but it won't work. Maybe it'll work at first, but the free account only allows you to listen outside the allowed countries within 14 days, after that you won't be able to listen any more. And to pay for the service you need to be in an allowed country, otherwise you won't be able to pay

Yeah, you'll just have two weeks, but that's two weeks of sweet listening

[Q] Donations India Paypal

Hey...
I wanted to make an account to receive donation on xda... so i signed up on Paypal...
But due to some Indian Government policies... Indians are not allowed to receive donations...
I have seen many Indian Members on xda with donation link... So i wanted to know how they do it?
How they made a donation account?
I contacted Paypal but they said they don't allow it... Is there any other way I can receive money from donations?
Thank you...

Re: [Q] * Donations * INDIA * Paypal *
Is there something called a donation account?
Don't know about that.
Otherwise, for Paypal, you need a valid bank account which you link with. Your paypal account is useless if there's no linked account.
Information may not be accurate as I do not possess a donation account/Paypal either, but this is what I've figured out.

Donating Invite in exchange of help

Okay guys. I got an invite and activated in for my account. Looks like I am not able to buy it with my Russian PayPal because it won't ship to the US like this (where I have an address to send the phone in Russia). And Invite will expire soon which is just pathetic.
If I don't find a solution within some hours I will be donating my account with invite fore 64GB OnePlus One to a recognized XDA member on the basis that he purchases the phone, having the next invite for him, ordering another One himself (i.e. for brother/sister/etc) and send it to me. All charges are on me of course, I will send through paypal. (~350$ phone+ 10$ US shipping + ~35$ shipping to Russia).
That is why only recognized members of XDA are chosen, preferably Devs/moderators. Sorry everyone else.

Of course I will gladly accept help from anyone who wishes to assist me without recieving an invite xD (i.e. just buy it instead of me and send to be) I woul even donate a couple of beers for that over all other charges on me. )):laugh:

Thank you very much your offered help. Unfortunately I am afraid you will not be able to order to the US as well and Euro price is higher :crying:
Anyway I will keep it as an option. Thx once again.

Sorry but I closed this thread because it is a duplicate topic. Please continue this discussion starting here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54014807&postcount=482

Need help with obtaining unlock code!

Guys,
Its a LONG story, but I don't have access to PayPal in order to pay the chinaman for an unlock code for my Maxx. I know my build date is recent enough. My question is this. If I send one of you the payment (through wallet perhaps?) and my imei number, would one of you be kind enough to act as an intermediary for a small fee? Either respond here, or PM me. I'd be forever grateful!!!!
Thanks guys!

Why not contact him and see if there's an alternate way you could pay?

I just figured it would be easier to go through someone who's already done the transaction a few times, that's all.

You don't need a paypal to order an unlock code. I've used regular credit card to buy it on taobao.

I used Google wallet because I don't like PayPal. That way if there is any funny business they only have access to your wallet account, which only had the amount asked for on it.

I would say taobao is a well-known trusted web store. So you can be more or less confident buying there.

I used my regular Mastercard to make the purchase the first time the codes were available. No issues with unauthorized transaction at all.

Ebay
I used ebay and paypal, But ebay takes credit cards too don't they with out paypal?

Google wallet is a better choice. That's what the person on eBay had me pay with.
